Samsung or HTC?

Hi, it depends on what you mean?
software experience - HTC,
hardware experience - HTC,
sales and overall Android domination - Samsung.
My personal experience - Samsung.

I've mostly always had Samsung phones, I don't know why tbh, I just preferred them :) until the decided to shunt Europe with the Note 5 and now I'm a Moto guy :D
 
I've had HTC, Motorola, and Samsung. I like Samsung much better. Lots of great features. I also have a Samsung smart tv and it interfaces seamlessly with the phone. Moto has great radio for superior reception but recent models do not produce enough volume for me to hear a phone call so not an option for me.
